In reality the problem lies with the chains being too short. In this case they could be easily extended with fixed maillons. My point is that it is all well & good to say people are ignorant for loading the anchors like this but if the original creator of the anchors had been more diligent then there would be no issue. Personally I see this all the time, whether it is a pair of hangers that have no rings or bits of rusted chain that biners do not fit through...sure if you know what you are doing then you are ok...but why put up a climb & then end it with a shoddy anchor system?
